United Petfood has announced the acquisition of British manufacturer Cambrian Pet Foods. The acquisition strengthens the position of United Petfood as full-service private label pet food producer and gives customers access to a complete range of products made in house, the company states.
Cambrian Pet Foods was founded in 1982 and has a leading position in the UK pet food market. The family-owned business has three production plants in Llangadog, Pencader and Longridge and employs 130 people. The company specialises in the private label production of dry and wet pet food in both trays and cans.
In 2019, United Petfood entered the wet pet food market segment with the opening of a wet pet food plant for single-serve pouches in Radom (Poland). Thanks to the second wet pet food factory in Llangadog, United Petfood is broadening its product offering and will now also be able to produce wet pet food in trays and cans.
